Your father
Hey, George. How are you doing?

I read the article you created about your father. Often, when people create articles about their relatives, the articles have to be deleted, so yours was a pleasant surprise. I have expanded Tex Fletcher substantially; please check it out and correct any errors you might see. As well, if you own any photos of him during his career which you would be willing to contribute, that would be quite nice. DS 15:25, 6 November 2006 (UTC)


 * In response to your comment: you're doing quite well with adding material to the article. It's not formatted as cleanly as it could be, but I'll take care of that myself. For future style tips, you might want to look at some of our featured articles - keep in mind that text is easier to read when it's broken into paragraphs, and that terms which are of interest and which have their own articles should be linked to (for instance, "Tex Ritter" and "Ripley's Believe It or Not").


 * As for a photo of him, all you need to do is select the "Upload file" link and go from there. The two things to keep in mind are a properly descriptive filename and, most crucially, copyright. If the pic doesn't have the right copyright tag, it'll get deleted. Recent changes in certain areas of copyright law have affected our ability to accept images under a "Wikipedia-only" license, so that's no longer any good. If it's a photo that was taken by you or a friend or family member, you can release it under the terms of the GFDL or a Creative Commons license, or if it's a publicity photo... anyway, I suggest reading Image copyright tags to find the appropriate choice.
